Haha, yeah. Thought about it but no way would they do it then.

Normally I do too, but it feels weird on my back. I've had nerve damage back there and pain in one little area lights my entire back on fire, feels like someone is skinning me alive.

Do you think vicodin is a good suggestion? I was thinking about that.

it's about as good as you're gonna get with anything short of morphine.

(you could always just eat some peyote beforehand, then you really won't feel any pain)

noted

going to get another back tat, so .................

The one on my back killed. I was only 16 when I got that one though. The one on my arm didn't hurt to bad.

The outline hurts the most; filling it in they use more concentrated needles. You'll be fine

Tattoos hurt? I thought I felt a slight sting in between bong hits.

Thats what I thought when I got my tats. The fill in isn't that bad.

I thought the filling in hurt more, more going back and forth and concentrated in an area.

What would you expect from someone named Rocco?

Im getting my tattoo on my inner bicep in 3 days.... and I have vicodin ready! Im thinking of popping 1 or 2 before hand to numb it a bit

Also... as my arms get bigger, will be tat stretch THAT much, or will it barely be noticable?

Cool, let me know how it goes. It shouldn't really stretch much at all. I got tats on my arms when I was 150lbs, then went up to 300 without really stretching them.

Very cool tattoos. You could try some spray analgesic stuff, like for sunburns. Suppose to cool and numb the area.

Gonna get one to......next couple of weeks.......so naturaltan I think I've got a long way to go before I get as many as you!!! Albob might have to come and hold my hand or the likes to keep my mind off it!!! Took me 5 yrs to find the one I wanted to get "stamped" on.....so I had better not hurt toooooo much!!!

I was taking vicodin for a back injury when I got the side of my head done,and it still hurt like hell.

Weed, does NOT help... I'm a smoker and would never hit it up.It intensifies the pain and once your body kicks in its natural pain killer, endorphins, your not baked anymore anyway ,so its a waste. I love the pain of tats and piercings so I'm not sure exactly what to tell ya all....but... Just focus on breathing , as in bodybuilding, and let your body take it. Soon enough it will release endorphins and the pain should be allot less. Alcohol works great too, if your artist is down with that, depends on how well you know them and they probably got a few bevvies in a beer fridge somewhere that they been drinking all day too! As for me, I love it, getting worked on is great... people actually don't realize it but the reason they go back for more has allot to do with the fact that you get a high off the endorphin rush. Subconscious thing I think. For the record, Id rather have 20 hours done on my back then when I had my nipples pierced...that shit hurt and the only reason I didn't scream like a little girl was cause my buddy was there hen I got them done and I got allot of pride..Tatttie rule. I love paying for girls that I date to get one.. its like my little hobby. And cheaper and not as dumb as buying them boobs, which a surprising number of idiots do.

You gained 150lbs and your arms didn't get any bigger. Pork Chop.
